The teen was charged with dangerous driving causing death, negligent driving causing death and driving while disqualified.

Back in April, emergency services were called to Baradine Road, around five kilometres east of Coonamble, after reports of a single vehicle crash late at night.
Police arrived and located a Toyota Hilux that had left the roadway and entered a paddock, before rolling a number of times.
A 21-year-old man died at the scene and an 18-year-old man was flown to John Hunter Hospital suffering serious head injuries.
NSW Police established a crime scene and an investigation commenced, led by officers from the Northern Tablelands Crash Investigation Unit (CIU).
